# Label

The **Label Object** essentially acts as a text box for a label. Any text can be added to the **Label** using the `Text` **Attribute** in the **Attribute Editor**.

Initially, the **Label** displays the text `Enter text here`.

Locating the `Text` **Attribute**, any text can be inputted to provide clear information for a *User Interface*. Here, the test text `Hello World` is supplied.

There is also the **Get LabelText Node**. More information can be found [here.](https://github.com/cgi-studio-gmbh/incari-doc/blob/2024.1/toolbox/incari/vector/label/README.md)

## Translation

It is also possible to switch to `Translation` by clicking the right-most icon of the `Text` **Attribute**.

![Static Text and Translation.](https://4263346935-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FLnh3x8s9fddWeG8TaAug%2Fuploads%2Fgit-blob-981fcfec4b57d2dca4efa0b62b3bde4612b662f3%2Ftextvstranslation.png?alt=media)

This lets the user access the `.local` file provided in the [**Project Settings**](https://docs.incari.com/incari-studio/2024.1/modules/project-settings/localization). The keys will appear as options in the `Translation` dropdown. The translation of the current language will be used. This is set in the **Project Settings** but can be altered with the [**Localization Nodes**](https://docs.incari.com/incari-studio/2024.1/toolbox/localization).

## Font

The **Font Attributes** control customizable settings of the **Label's** font. `Font Family` allows one to select a generic font family (`Manrope` or `Source Code Pro`) or a custom font that has been added in [**Project Settings**](https://docs.incari.com/incari-studio/2024.1/modules/project-settings/fonts).

**Label Objects** are capable of handling [*variable fonts*](https://docs.incari.com/incari-studio/2024.1/modules/project-settings/fonts#variable-fonts) and let the user configure certain aspects, called `Parameters`. The *gif* below demonstrates what a font looks like with no `Parameters` in its **Attributes** and what it looks like when the user switches to a font that does.
